DESCRIPTION
Microsoft and Bungie's blockbuster sci-fi shooter series continues with this standalone expansion to Halo 3. Battle through an all-new campaign as an ODST, short for Orbital Drop Shock Trooper, in a storyline that serves as a prequel to the events chronicled in Halo 3. Your mission is to locate the remaining members of your squad somewhere within the Covenant-besieged city of New Mombasa. A new multiplayer mode entitled "Firefight" is introduced, where up to four players must work together to repel increasingly challenging waves of enemies. A second disc is home to a total of 24 multiplayer maps, three of which are new, with the remainder comprised of the "legendary," "heroic," and "mythic" Halo 3 map packs that were previously available as downloadable content via Xbox Live. Initial runs of Halo 3: ODST also include a key to the multiplayer beta of the franchise's next anticipated entry, Halo: Reach. This collector's pack includes both the game and an exclusive wireless controller featuring custom-designed artwork. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide

“Nearly Identical to the previous 3 games, which is never really a bad thing. Only differences are some open world stealth scenes and a lot less health than playing as the master chief. The campaign is much more fun than halo 3 as well”

The campaign story is interesting, not quite as epic as the other Halo games, but this is somewhat fitting as we're no longer running around as a super human Spartan.
Firefight is a nice twist on multilayer, challenging you with waves of enemies much like other shooters have been doing recently.

“A welcome addition to the halo franchise. Though the campaign itself is very short, i enjoyed it. The multiplayer firefight could use matchmaking, but it isn't possible due to using the original halo 3 engine with no "co op" matchmaking so says bungie. The multiplayer disc with all the halo3 dlc maps and everything is nice to have. Overall I really enjoyed it. 4 stars due to shortness and lack of matchmaking firefight.”
